On my recent trip to Honduras I’ve discovered Manu Chao.  Apparently he was the founder of Manu Negra that I used to listen to back in the day, but I totally forgot about it, for some reason.  Anyways Manu Chao is doing some GREAT solo work these days.  Of course singing in Spanish, French, English, Arabic, etc and music influences from all over the world it makes for an interesting experience.  See what I mean:
